# Basic Option Information

- name: profile_based_inline
- description: Use call count profiling to drive inlining, specify arguments
- command-line: --prof-based-inline
- option type: string option

# Description

Inline flowgraphs only for call-sites for which there was a minimal number of calls during an instrumented run of the program. Callee flowgraphs are considered candidates based on a weight heuristic like for basic inlining. (see --translation-backendopt-inline, --prof-based-inline-threshold ).

The option takes as value a string which is the arguments to pass to the program for the instrumented run.

This optimisation is not used by default.
